Case Study: Wargaming strengthens global web and API security with Wallarm

Wargaming protects 200 million players with Wallarm

Wargaming, a major online game developer with over 200 million players, needed a security solution capable of protecting its massive global infrastructure of 3,000 nodes across 50+ regions. Their challenge was finding a solution that could scale efficiently, integrate natively with their NGINX infrastructure, and help meet strict GDPR obligations, all while remaining cost-effective compared to appliance-based or other cloud alternatives. They turned to Wallarm for its WAF and API security platform.

The solution implemented was Wallarm's NGINX-native security platform, deployed in a hybrid blocking and monitoring mode across their entire infrastructure. This provided not only critical attack blocking but also valuable operational intelligence through its dashboards, which Wargaming uses to forecast traffic patterns and distribute resources more efficiently. The results include comprehensive protection for their websites, APIs, and applications, with Wallarm's Active Threat Verification scanner streamlining vulnerability management. The measurable impact is that after annual competitive reviews, Wallarm remains their vendor of choice due to its unmatched scale, fit, and cost-effectiveness for their traffic volume.
